用法筆記

This word is usually used for the part that carries out a command by creating real movement. In technical writing, it often contrasts with a sensor, which detects a change but does not move the part itself.

常見錯誤

The sensor opened the valve when pressure changed.
The actuator opened the valve when pressure changed.
a sensor detects the change, but an actuator performs the movement.
